ASIC/SoC Design Verification Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with design engineers and architects to define, document and implement detailed test plans for the SoC design verification
• Build and maintain infrastructure/environment for automation verification of SoC architecture, function and performance
• Develop reusable testbench, constrained-random/directed test cases, and verification associated behavioral module for both of block levels and system levels
• Develop regression strategy, methodology and tools(scripts). Define and measure the function coverage. Close verification holes for design releases and tape-out
• Work with design engineers to debug and identify root causes of simulation failure
• Support test engineers for post-silicon validation
• Mentor and coach team members and junior engineers. Drive verification efficiency

Requirements:

• MS with 8+ years of relevant experience or PhD (with 3+ years of experience) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or related degree
• In depth knowledge of UVM/OVM, Semiformal Verification, assertion-based verification as well as hardware and software co-verification methodology
• Extensive experience of building verification infrastructure, test planning, coverage closure, testbench and testcases development for function/performance verification
• Proficient experience with Verilog, System Verilog, Python/Perl/TCL/Shell scripting, C/C++, System C and industry mainstream ISAs assembly coding
• Familiarity with MIPI, AMBA (APB/AHB/AXI) bus protocol, RISC-V/ARM or DSP core
• Experience in verifying designs at both of RTL level and post-P&R gate level
• Ability to work in a startup environment, and to work both independently and as a team player with the ability to provide technical leadership to other members of the engineering team

Experience in one or more of the following areas considered a strong plus:

• Working knowledge of AI/ML Computing, GPU, ISP architectures and accelerators
• Experience in verifying mix-signal design and interface of digital and analog
• Experience of design verification for highspeed IO such as PCIE and DDR
